Strategies for the Community Health Nurse Empowerment
It is necessary to develop and try to introduce appropriate strategies to expand the rights and opportunities of junior medical personnel in clinics and hospitals. In municipalities in the state of Miami, it is possible to organize study rooms for those wishing to receive educational material on a particular issue. If nurses lead such courses, patients will undoubtedly be able to appreciate the training of the employee and, as a consequence, the quality of the care provided. Also, it will positively influence the qualifications of medical workers themselves. Preparing for classes as teachers will allow them to hone their professional skills and expand their knowledge in specific areas. Accordingly, educational courses will be useful both for the population and employees.
Another strategy that can be used is the opportunity to take part in medical practice, for example, assisting during operations or working as an incoming specialist. As Lambert, Strebel, Orenstein, Icenogle, and Poland (2015) remark, patients who will be treated under the supervision of such nurses will be able to make sure that the level of their training is high enough. At the same time, the authorities will make sure of the professional qualifications of their subordinates and will be able to provide them with greater rights and freedoms.
The role of the community health nurse in these strategies is that the employee acts as a professional specialist but not as a member of the junior team according to the medical hierarchy. Working with the population will become quite good practice and will allow achieving high-performance results. The participation of different representatives (a teacher or an incoming nurse) will expand specialists’ horizon and enhance the knowledge.
Prevention Strategies against Rubella
One of the most effective and proven prevention strategies for a disease such as rubella is vaccination. Patients who have the appropriate antibodies in their bodies can fight successfully against the ailment Maurer and Smith (2013). Even if one of them accidentally catches rubella, the illness will proceed in a much less acute form than in case of absence of a vaccine.
If it is about the selected categories, the members of the community who deal with patients are most likely to be at risk. Due to the fact that they regularly spend time with rubella patients, their chances of getting sick are much higher than, for example, Miami Dade College. Usually. Employees of the Campus Medical Center also have a relatively low risk of contracting this not-so-pleasant disease. It is explained by the fact that in largest medical institutions, all the antiseptic procedures are strictly controlled. Therefore, the students of such a center are not infected with viral diseases so rarely as different members of communities and volunteer organizations who regularly have to deal with sick patients.
As for an additional strategy, it is also possible to try to conduct courses here, which aim at educating the population and preventing rubella. Especially it applies to those who are at risk, that is, community workers. Thus, possible strategies may exist; it is essential to make everything possible to protect the population and not to give sick and healthy people communicate with one another. That is why in places of significant people concentration, it is important to provide full protection and to ensure that everyone is aware of preventive appropriate preventive measures.
